- Game Update 0.0.20 - Taxes, Shops & Books - 6 September 2026
Now live, books, shops and yes...TAXES! I'll start with the good news. You can now create and write/read/copy books and your journal. This makes your writing and drawings world items! You can also make shops in town to sell, buy and auction. The number of slots available to you depends on your Merchant skill. And the not so popular news. Taxes have been added to the game. Now both the Death and the Taxes are here, the game officially lives up to it's name. Since this is not even EA, players are not going to be expected to pay for gold just yet, but we don't want to discourage support. Rest assured that any gold purchased now through the end of EA will be provided to you again after any wipes. Also good to keep in mind, your wallet and your bank belong to your "family line" and do not reset on death.Join us on Discord to get in on the game development and suggestions.Patch Notes 0.0.20Ga…
